WELCOME A very warm welcome to our third Employee Engagement Summit.

Building on the success of our first two Summits, today we will examine all aspects of work under the overarching theme of how technology is changing the face of employee engagement.

The Summit will focus firmly on the key issues, challenges and opportunities around engaging our people and includes world class case studies, expert opinion and analysis, round table focus group sessions and high level interactive networking and polling technology.

In addition to a mouth-watering line up of case study presentations from the likes of Harrods, Thomson Reuters, Heathrow, the NHS, The Co-op, Vodafone, LV= and the Civil Service, there will also be presentations from a leading edge roster of experts in the field of employee engagement led by Jo Swinson, former employment relations minister whose opening keynote will address the very purpose and nature of work.

New research from PwC points to major changes ahead in the world of work driven by advances in technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics. While up to a third of existing jobs could face automation by the early 2030s, new AI technologies could boost production and generate more jobs, PwC says.

By boosting productivity, a key UK weakness over the past decade, and so generating wealth, advances in robotics and AI should also create additional jobs in less automatable parts of the economy as this extra wealth is spent or invested according to PwC. The virtuous circle formed by highly engaged, motivated and well directed employees interacting across the business with increasingly sophisticated and demanding digital age customers is the only sustainable way forward.

Jack Eeles Delegate Sales E: jack.eeles@ebm.media T: 01932 506 306

Our Employee Engagement Summit comes as a growing number of organisations are realising the business benefits that accrue when they forge a link between engagement of their employees and their customers.

Sabrina Clarke Finance Department E: finance@ebm.media T: 01932 500 103

Our aim is for our delegates to leave this Summit armed with all the tools and techniques and insight they need to implement effective and successful long term employee engagement strategies. Enjoy.

David Bowman Fresh Intranet

The word intranet conjures up a mix of emotions for most people; good and bad… ok, mostly bad. We think that intranets play a fundamental role in the modern workplace in bringing together what’s become a tangled web of disconnected systems. In a cloud based world there are more opportunities than ever to reshape the traditional intranet into a single, easy-to-use employee platform. One that employees will be sure to engage with.

SUMMIT PROGRAMME 08:1509:00 09:0009:25

KEYNOTE STAGE

Registration & Coffee Opening Keynote: The Purpose of Work Jo Swinson, Former Employment Relations Minister Work is an anchor in our lives, yet engagement levels vary wildly.

Jo Swinson will draw on her experience from Government and as Chair of the CIPD Policy Forum to place employee engagement in context of the business and societal challenges of our time. From colleague relationships to customer satisfaction, from productivity to trust, engagement is key. Jo will get you thinking and set the scene for an idea-packed day.

In September 2012, Jo Swinson became Minister for Employment Relations and Consumer Affairs in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and Women and Equalities Minister. She was elected as the Liberal Democrat MP for East Dunbartonshire in 2005.

09:2509:50

Keynote: Innovation: From Buzz Word to Bookmark Victoria Silverman, Director of Innovation Enablement, Global, Thomson Reuters How do you engage employees in the future success of your organisation? How do you help them fall in love with an activity that drives success and energises teams but has become something of a corporate cliché?

Thomson Reuters’ Director of Innovation Enablement, Victoria Silverman, will take you through her company’s reinvigoration of innovation as an activity, value and catalyst for change. She promises that you’ll put pen to paper or fingertip to gadget to capture tactics you can apply in your own role, and learnings from an ethos that’s emotionally intelligent, creative and inclusive. Victoria will show how to engage millennials and other colleagues alike by ensuring form and substance meet when it comes to applying an abstract concept that’s vital to any organisation’s success – and all without an agency.

Victoria Silverman is a global engagement specialist who gets results by using visuals, words and ideas to inspire collaborative behaviours and to build the right culture for a business to succeed. Her background is in journalism, teaching and corporate storytelling. Until recently, Victoria led Thomson Reuters’ global employee engagement for Diversity & Inclusion and Corporate Responsibility, delivering record breaking, award-winning campaigns including: Women Who Rock! a celebration of women and the men who support them in the workplace; On Side With Pride, to support LGBTQ colleagues and programs; Steps to a Smaller Footprint, an energy efficiency drive that supported the reduction of $1 million in energy bills; and We4She – a month-long UN-related initiative to inspire male and female employees to mentor, coach or sponsor a woman or girl – which drew 49k views, likes, comments and 1k pledges among the company’s 50k-strong workforce in 100 countries. Her most recent campaign #dare2disrupt dares employees to live and love innovation at work.

She has also been communicator in chief for the London HR community, which was all about bringing people together, breaking down silos and sharing knowledge. Victoria has worked for Deloitte, ITV and the Government in editorial, corporate comms and change management roles. In her spare time, she is director of The Missing Manual Ltd and founder of the parenting online community BeTeenUs.com.

09:5010:15

Keynote: The Second Class Internal Consumer Paul Dickinson, Consultant, Previously Virgin Atlantic Sales and Marketing Director Why do world class service brands make huge investments in outsourcing external consumer engagement to advertising, branding and PR agencies but only a fraction of that amount engaging their internal audience?

In this talk Paul Dickinson will compare the challenges of making award-winning advertising campaigns with the complexity of creating an employee engagement culture. He draws from his experience of engaging the employees of two very different brands, with two very different cultures and considers the interplay between external and internal messaging.

KEYNOTE STAGE

SUMMIT PROGRAMME

Paul shares the successes and pitfalls of his ‘inside-out’ and ‘outside-in’ engagement strategies. Exactly what does it take to make sure employees are equipped and energised to deliver a big brand promise to customers with huge expectations?

10:1510:40

Keynote: Are Employee Relationship Management (ERM) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Two Sides of The Same Coin?

Niall Ryan-Jones, Head of Employee Experience, Harrods Can employee engagement incorporate learning from the practices of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) the marketing art of increasing customer loyalty? Are Employee Relationship Management (ERM) and CRM two sides of the same coin?

Harrods Head of Employee Experience, Niall Ryan-Jones, will take you through how employee engagement is being shaped for the future through the lens of CRM. He will share how Harrods is developing employee data capability and utilising insight from numerous employee touch points to develop a deeper understanding of how engagement is influencing performance. Niall will also discuss how engagement practise are being shaped to drive a great employee experience that is aligned to driving a great experience for Harrods customers.

Niall Ryan-Jones has worked in retail his entire career for various companies such as Primark, Debenhams, House of Fraser, Liberty and Harrods.

For the last 15 years Niall has worked specifically in the employee engagement space starting in internal communications, which later expanded to incorporate employee engagement and employer brand management. In recent years his career has taken a new direction, which now sees him working as Head of Employee Experience at the world famous retailer, Harrods. His role encompasses many employee touch points such as internal communications, benefits and recognition, corporate responsibility, corporate health, employee engagement and employer brand management.

Over the years Niall’s work has assisted transformation within the organisation to the point where Harrods has received numerous accreditations, such as being a ‘Best Company to Work For’, ‘Top Employer ’ six years in a row, Accredited by Glassdoor and LinkedIn. In addition to this employee turnover is the lowest amongst its peers and employee engagement is at a healthy 80%. This has undoubtedly gone some way to enabling Harrods to deliver industry leading levels of service, sales and profit, over the last 10 years.

Niall’s ongoing focus is to ensure employees are equipped and inspired to deliver an exceptional customer experience, which is underpinned by an exceptional employee experience. This will enable Harrods to maintain its desired position to be the employer of choice within luxury retail.

HALL 1

HALL CHAIR: Cathy Brown, Executive Director, Engage For Success As the Exec Director for Engage for Success I engage and energise audiences around business change, leadership and innovation. I passionately believe that helping people find a better way to work can make a big difference to people’s lives, their organisations and ultimately to the country.

Engage for Success is a social movement committed to releasing the capabilities of employees to improve performance, instigate growth and enhance wellbeing. It operates across the public, private and third sectors and enjoys significant Government support.

HALL 1

As director for Engage for Success, I have wide ranging experience across the public, private and third sectors in raising awareness and providing practical guidance to organisations looking to improve employee engagement. With a background in delivering strategic transformation programmes for a FTSE 100 company, I recognise the importance of values, good management practices, authentic leadership and the ability to listen in creating environments where people can bring the best of themselves to work every day.

EMPLOYEE & CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT, LINKS TO PERFORMANCE & PROFITABILITY – PART 1 11:1011:30

Heathrow Airport Case Study: The Magic of Mojo Paula Stannett, HR Director, Heathrow Airport Heathrow’s vision is “To give passengers the best airport service in the world” and will get there by delivering on its four corporate priorities. Mojo is one of these priorities, where Heathrow is striving to be a “Great Place to Work”. A further priority is to transform Customer Service. Hear what Heathrow has done to drive engagement across the business, the community and in its supply chain. Paula will also share how this strategy was applied to the opening and ongoing leadership of Terminal 2 (T2) and the impact this has had on passenger service with T2 now being seen by passengers as delivering the best service in Europe.

Paula was appointed to HR Director in January 2013. She has worked at Heathrow for 13 years, most recently as HR Director for our Airports Division and Support Services and previously as programme lead for Heathrow’s Winter Resilience. Paula has a strong record of engaging staff to successfully put in place organisational change and improvement.

11:3011:50

Using Recognition to Drive Business Performance Denise Willett, Senior Director, Achievers EMEA According to Gallup, companies with highly engaged workplaces outperform their peers by 147% in earnings per share; so it’s no surprise that engaging employees and promoting positive workplace culture are both high priorities for business leaders.

Denise will be looking at why employee engagement is more important – and harder to achieve – than ever before, and demonstrate the powerful link between recognition and engagement. Using client examples, she’ll be sharing valuable insight into how recognition can be used to align employees with the corporate values and business goals that impact your bottom-line results.

As Senior Director of Achievers EMEA, Denise is focused on helping our clients build successful recognition programmes that align with strategic business objectives. Since 2012, she has had the opportunity to lead and develop a fantastic team of Customer Success Managers and partner with many diverse, global organisations who share her passion for creating a work environment committed to employee recognition and engagement. Denise has over 16 years of experience working with large enterprise, global organisations. Prior to joining Achievers, she spent 13 years at IBM Canada, where she specialised in technology services. Denise holds a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, Canada.

‘It’s Not You, It’s Me’ Jane Barrett, Author and Career Coach, The Career Farm Despite some of your company’s best interventions, some people are disengaged. In other words – the classic, ‘it’s not you, it’s me’! Some you may be happy to lose. Others you really want to keep, as they are the talent, which will drive your business forward. According to Wired Magazine, more people will be in gig employment than conventional employment by 2050. How can you hold on to talent, keep them engaged and get the best from them?

I will share what I have learned from working with some of the most talented potential leaders from all over the world and the method I use to help them work out what they want and what they have to offer. Marry this with a company who can offer the kind of work they love to do and you go a long way to having an engaged and productive workforce.

For 16 years I’ve worked with executives in corporates to help them proactively take charge of their career. My work helps people be more engaged and productive at work, a win/win situation for employee and employer. I am a guest lecturer to exec MBAs, full-time MBAs and alumni at some of the leading business schools in Europe. In January 2017 the 2nd edition of the book I co-authored ‘If not now, when? How to take charge of your career’ will be published by Bloomsbury. I have been a guest on Radio 4, PM Programme and been featured in the Financial Times

Museum of London Case Study: Re-Inventing The Museum….

From The Inside Out Antony Robbins, Communications Director, Museum of London Museum of London Communications Director Antony Robbins takes us through a journey as he and his colleagues embark on plans to open up a brand new museum for London, in West Smithfield in 2022. This is all about change: and it starts from within, among staff and volunteers. Leadership challenges lie ahead as the museum appoints architects and applies for planning permission. But this is so much more than bricks and mortar. The aim is to challenge the very concept of a museum and at the heart of this transformation is making sure the Museum of London has the right people to deliver its ambitions – and to re-caste the museum’s relationship with London and Londoners.

HALL 1

Antony Robbins, 52, is the Director of Communications at the Museum of London and Museum of London Docklands.

He joined as the organisation opened its £22m Galleries of Modern London in 2010. The museum’s focus is on becoming better known and reaching more people and it has invested considerably in digital technology. Its awardwinning StreetMuseum app and films on YouTube have helped connect it to a cooler, more contemporary London audience. This has both helped shape the museum’s brand and build its visitor numbers. The museum now has plans to leave its current site. By 2021 it will open up a state-of-the-art new museum just up the road in London’s nearby West Smithfield. Much of Antony’s career has been in international relief and development. He worked at the UK government’s Department of International Development and for aid agency CARE International. His role took him across Latin America, Asia, the Balkans and sub-Saharan Africa. Antony was born in London – the city he still calls home.

Euroclear Case Study: Engaging Employees to Define The Future of Work: Are You Serious?

Dr. Bonnie Cheuk, Director, Global Head of Digital, Knowledge & Social Collaboration, Euroclear Communication and engagement is human nature. It is so natural that the assumptions around employee engagement status quo are not questioned.

In the workplace context, it is common to accept that: • • •

face-to-face communication is more effective that online communication online discussion and engagement is facebook-like, create too much noise and is a waste of time employee engagement is about asking employees what they think (face-to-face or online), so interviews, focus groups, surveys are considered effective engagement tools

Employees recognition does not always need to involve money. In the online world, employees like badges and brownie points, and gamification is the new coolade. Employee engagement can be staged to create feel good factors, and increase employee engagement will lead to happiness, well-being, loyalty and satisfaction and positive business outcomes.

HALL 2

SUMMIT PROGRAMME

As a passionate champion of digital to refine the future of work, informed by Dr Brenda Dervin and David Snowden’s research, Bonnie believes that it does not matter whether it is conducted online or face-to-face, employee engagement has to get down to the basics of being truly user-centric, i.e. engaging with the employees through the eyes of the employees, getting under the skin what what employees needs, pains and dreams in the context of their day-to-day work, and in their business language. It is easier said than done. Come to this session to reflect on the status quo.

Dr Bonnie Cheuk is a strategic, hands-on, business & results-driven executive with strong digital transformation, web/digital channel management, information & knowledge management, collaboration, social media and Enterprise 2.0 expertise. Originally from Hong Kong, she has 20+ years of international work experience with multinational corporations in HK, Singapore, USA, UK and Europe.

What If Great Customer Service Professionals Aren’t Just Born, But Can Also Be Made?

Adam Charlesworth, Leadership Consultant & Educator, Academie du Service How developing customer relation talents can unlock the performance of your organisation... and lock in the engagement of your employees Which organisations are the very best at satisfying their customers and keeping their staff happy, motivated and engaged? Most of us would probably come up with a pretty similar group of names. Figuring out what sets these world-leading, game-changing “usual suspects” apart is a lot trickier. So much so, that it’s sometimes tempting, even comfortable, to succumb to the belief that their success is down to factors that “ordinary” companies could never realistically hope to replicate. Factors such as no-compromise service culture, customer-centric mindset and brand equity that customers value. In other words, stuff that’s pretty easy to conceptualise, and certainly easy to recognise when we see the best of the best doing it, but which most of us find really hard to execute on the ground.

So have organisations with outstanding service cultures discovered some kind of mysterious alchemy? Have they been blessed from the very top down with the kind of visionary CX Champions that are simply born to greatness? At Academie du Service, we don’t think so. As serial observers, analysers and documenters of benchmark customer experiences the world over for more than fifteen years, we have identified and codified a set of skills and behaviours that we firmly believe are the lynchpin to producing world-class customer satisfaction performance in any organisation. We call them “customer relation talents”. They can be measured, they can be analysed and, most importantly, they can be taught. It could be what takes the customer engagement performance of your organisation to the next level. Better still, in our experience, it’s exactly what the customer service professionals in your teams want.

He has built, developed and led Corporate Universities and leadership development initiatives for blue-chip companies in Europe, the Americas and Asia. He has been working in close association with the Académie du Service since 2013.

The Future of Apps in The Delivery of Employee Engagement and Happiness David Walker, Chief Commercial Officer, Personal Group This presentation will focus on:

• •

Exploring the link between employee engagement, happiness and productivity How to harness the power of the most technologically advanced communications network you already have in place Harnessing the power of employee apps How you can future-proof your employee engagement approach

David Walker joined Personal Group as Chief Commercial Officer in 2012. Having spent the early part of his career working for Barclays Bank in a variety of regional, commercial and International roles, David left to join BskyB and their B2B operational in 200, becoming Head of Sales for all non-domestic subscribers. David was recruited by Dyson in 2006 to help launch the Airblade hand dryer in the UK, and subsequently spent three years in Chicago as US Managing Director.

David has delivered many presentations around the world on wide ranging topics, from reducing carbon footprints to how mobile phones are transforming employee communication.

Raleigh International Case Study: Overseas Volunteering as an Employee Engagement Proposition: How Partnering with Raleigh International is Benefiting Employees of BNP Paribas (Suisse) and Google James Sutton, Business Development Strategist, Raleigh International As companies look to find newer ways to keep staff motivated, to get behind their values or CSR strategy, and indeed to actually retain their best talent as employees, James Sutton of sustainable development charity Raleigh International explores the power of corporate volunteering overseas – the multitude of benefits it can bring to employees, but also the benefits it can ultimately bring back to the company as well. James will bring this to life through the lens of two case studies, the first with BNP Paribas (Suisse) as an official corporatecharity partnership, and the second as an informal relationship with employees of Google EMEA. James has worked at Raleigh International as Business Development Strategist since January 2015; he previously volunteered with Raleigh in Costa Rica and Nicaragua in 2002.

Critical Success Factors In Employee Engagement: Lessons from the Coalface Rich Marsh, Consultant & Trainer, Dale Carnegie Dale Carnegie have been delivering training in the workplace for over 100 years. If you want your company to thrive, fully engaged employees are the ultimate goal.

While many studies highlight the percentage of engaged and disengaged employees, few studies have looked at what drives employee engagement. Dale Carnegie Training surveyed over 4500 people globally, and 1600 employees throughout Europe specifically. Whilst there are many factors that impact employee engagement, there are three key drivers: • • •

Relationship with immediate supervisor Belief in senior leadership Pride in working for the company

Drawing on his 25 years experience with Dale Carnegie Rich Marsh will talk about some of the pitfalls to avoid, and the keys to success, when maximising engagement in your organisation.

Rich is a trainer, speaker and coach working with Dale Carnegie offices across Europe. He is involved with diagnosing client needs and configuring appropriate solutions with companies at all levels and delivering the resulting material.

Prior to his current role, Rich worked full-time with Dale Carnegie (1992-2003 and 2007- 2011) In the 1980s and early 1990s, he partnered in a recruitment company and pioneered the concept of online recruitment – prior to the internet as a commercial reality. (Later developed up by Monster.com and others.) He also ran the UK business for Profiles International of the USA, gaining experience of 360-degree feedback systems and psychometric profiling and benchmarking. He is currently also Managing Director of a fledgling healthcare company. As an entrepreneur, he has appeared in the Times, FT and dozens of national and specialist publications as well as appearing on TV, radio and being interviewed by Michael Parkinson.

The word intranet conjures up a mix of emotions for most people; good and bad… ok, mostly bad.

We think that intranets play a fundamental role in the modern workplace in bringing together what’s become a tangled web of disconnected systems.

In a cloud based world there are more opportunities than ever to reshape the traditional intranet into a single, easy-to-use employee platform. One that employees will be sure to engage with.

Fresh intranet will be hosting an interactive workshop designed to promote discussions and prioritise objectives based on communication, collaboration and technology. Plus, contributors get prizes! Small prizes but prizes nonetheless.
